Time flies when you’re having fun, as they say, and before you can say
‘Isuzu FA Trophy and Vase’ The National Game Awards are back to signal
the business end of another spell-binding Non-League season.
With plenty still to play for, of course, this year’s NGAs are very much up for grabs so why
not get your votes in early to give your team, star man, top fan or most valued volunteer
the best chance of being honoured in Non-League football’s most prized ceremony.
Our NGAs will held at AFC Wimbledon’s plush new Plough Lane Stadium on Wednesday May
22 and, once again, we are delighted to confirm that Isuzu UK have agreed to become title
sponsors again this year, adding The NGAs to their current sponsorship of Non-League’s two
premier cup competitions.
Isuzu UK have become a driving force behind grassroots football in the community with a
large number of dealerships from all over the country becoming actively involved in their
local clubs.
We remain proud and hugely grateful for their support and look forward to working closely
with the Isuzu UK team when it comes to selecting the winner of our much-loved Unsung
Hero Award.
This year, we welcome two new backers to the party. Our friends at 1000GBP are pulling up
trees with their ultimate daily football quiz (see advertising wrap) and they are getting
involved by sponsoring our Community Club of the Year award.
Also on board are UK teamwear and clothing company Moving Forward Sports, who will be
honouring the Player of the Year for their outstanding contribution to the season.
Huck Nets have once again put their name to the Goal of the Season accolade, while Reusch
are also back — they couldn’t wait to once again get their hands on the sponsorship for this
season’s Goalkeeper of the Year award.
Sports Ground Development are back for a second year running to present the Manager of
the Year award, while the Acerbis Team of the Year will be as hotly contested as ever.
Our friends at Sportsbeat sign up once again – they didn’t need asking twice to support the
Young Player of the Year, while SK Kits will honour Non-League’s top goal getter with the
Golden Boot award.
The NLP Lifetime Achievement award is one of our personal favourites, while The Football
Supporters’ Association Away Day Experience of the year recognises the efforts clubs make
to cater for travelling fans.
The FA are also back on board to acknowledge the winner of the Cup Run of the Year, judged
on the FA Cup, Trophy and Vase. Can anyone knock Maidstone United off their perch?
It’s not too late to get involved. We have sponsorship opportunities available for our Step
3&4 Player of the Year and Fan of the Year awards, so get in touch if you’d like to join the
biggest Non-League party in town.
Keep an eye on The NLP over the coming weeks for award-by-award guides and all the
information you need to ensure the decanters end up in the right hands and send your votes
